£2,000 = ~$3200 You’re going to have a long wait I think before your yank friends come to visit. You’re asking for gold to almost double in price and by then they probably won’t be able to afford the trip across the pond. (Tho it has doubled since 2009 so maybe not that far fetched a thought after all.)

Huzzah! Well said My Lord…!! Blimey, you yanks are all alike. “Gold’s too bloody high, Gold’s too bleedin’ low….!! Why don’t you all sod off! Why, in my day, we here in the Parliament would give our left nut for the London AM price to just stay the same once in a fortnight. That and the price of tea and a slice. All this bloody capitalism run amok! Enough I say! Chill out, as you say in the states? Capital idea! As for me, I’m bound for The Rose & Crown for a pint and a wee plate of fish & chips. And don’t come ‘round until Gold hits £2,000.

It’s interesting how everybody is so interested in spot gold price changes when all that matters as far as mint pricing goes is the London AM and PM fix prices. What happens in New York is irrelevant – it’s what happens in London that counts. And then it only matters on Wednesdays since that’s when the average is calculated for mint coinage price changes (if any). You people are obsessed with gold fluctuations when mint gold pricing is a lot calmer, of concern only once a week. Relax and chill out.
